On July 27, Deputy Prime Minister and Minister of Industry and Trade of Tatarstan Albert Karimov, supported by representatives from the Tatarstan Ministry of Economy, the Tatarstan Ministry of Health, the Tatarstan Investment Development Agency, ZAO IPT Idea, SEZ Innopolis, and SEZ Alabuga, held a meeting to determine the prospects for the implementation of the project titled “Pharmapolis of the Republic of Tatarstan”.
Given the state of the republic’s pharmaceutical industry, one of the main drivers for its development, according to the Ministry, is involving pharmaceutical companies to Tatarstan as residents of sites with special business environment. In the brainstorming format, the participants discussed key issues of the project on creating a management system and allocating a special site for the placement of pharmaceutical facilities.
In follow-up to the meeting, it is expected that an action plan will be worked out by the republic’s ministries and organisations participating in the project.
